To build and run: Unpack the source archive or check the files out of CVS into d:\jacob Install the following tools Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition, free from Microsoft on their web site. Eclipse from www.eclipse.org. Java JDK 1.4 (this was built using 1.4.2.09) This project has been converted completely from MAKE to ANT. You can run ANT from inside of eclipse or from the command line. The ant process is driven off of a configuration file named compilation_tools.properties that describes the locations of the JDK and Microsoft C++ tools. Instructions on the information required in that file are contained in build.xml in the root directory. The following configuration used by the development team using VC++ 6.0 installed in D:\apps: JDK=d:/j2sdk1.4.2_09 MSDEVDIR=d:\\apps\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98 version=1.11-pre1 Running ANT via build.xml will do the following with the default target. Build the Java code Build the jni code create the dll create jar file Running the "package" ANT target runs the above listed steps and then builds the javadoc and then the zip files. ECLIPSE Eclipse users will have to do some minor tweaks to their project if they want to use the integrated build process. This is because the unit tests are files located in the "unittest" directory while the project source files themselves are in "src" the root directory. Eclipse automatically adds the whole project as a source directory Remove the root of the project from the build path Add folders samples, src and unittest to the build path Exclude *.txt from each of the newly added folders. The Servlet examples that required j2ee libraries to compile have temporarily been removed. The java code is in .\src. The C++ code is in .\jni. Last Modified 10/2005
